[JAPAN] HONSHU: KOBE ONE DAY TRIP GUIDE + CHEAPEST KOBE COURSE

KOBE ONE DAY TRIP

KOBE? KOBE? what's come first in your mind when you heard Kobe? Beef! Right luxurious kobe beef. But suprisingly, Kobe city is one of city that i loved. It just so lovey, not so crowded and modernly beautiful but too bad that day (because of storm) it was raining all day long so it's quite hard to enjoy the trip since i used umbrella HAHA but here it is! My kobe trip 

TRANSPORTATION TO KOBE

Just take regular train from osaka station or namba station to Kobe sannomiya station (around ¥320/oneway) it takes only around 30mins away

TRANSPORTATION IN KOBE

They has local train station or bus, but actually all places are quite close to each other.

MUST VISIT

#1 KOBE MOTOMACHI

It's like a long alley with shops along the way with canopy HAHA best way to avoid rain.

#2 KOBE CHINA TOWN

china town in Kobe is legit. I totally forget that we were in Japan HAHA so many tjings to see and street food! But becareful so many vendors sell unfresh food, ask for warm newly made stuff and its good! I recommend pork bun (¥500) its warm and the pork belly is super melting!

#3 DECK AREA

Super pretty waterfront area where you can enjoy kobe view as port city but too bad that time because of rain, it super foggy :( 

#4 KITANO IJINKAN

uphill area where famous with its cafes and unique bistro around. You also can find unique old american style starbucks dominated in green and white super instagramalbe place.

LAST BUT NOT LEAST

you are not in kobe IF you dont try famous kobe beef! but because we were backpacking, so we decided not too spend all of my budget on A5 kobe which the best class of meat that cost around USD 200/150Gram so after i browsed, i found this fakily restaurant very small and limited seat so you have to make reservation from their facebook.

TOR ROAD STEAK AOYAMA

                          2 Chome-14-5 Shimoyamatedori, Chuo Ward, Kobe, Hyogo 650-0011, Japan

Well its not A5 level because i felt like i'm not deserved eating that (a.k.a broke). So me and my boyfie tried A3 beef course cost around ¥5.200 or around IDR 700.000 for 160g beef and salad and coffee lalala. And . . . . .  :""" speechless already can't imagine A5. This steL already melting in our mouth and 160g actually far from " enough" for filling our stomach super wooortthh it the best steak cut i've ever eaten.
